Course content

1 section10 lectures44m total length
  • Agenda0:16
  • A Word on Linear Circuits Textbooks....0:19
  • Review4:36

    Apply nodal analysis to simplify the circuit, identify nodes, ground one node, and form Kirchhoff current law equations for unknowns. Then use Ohm's Law to solve and verify with KCL.

  • Setting Up a Traditional Nodal Analysis Problem7:05

    Apply nine-step nodal analysis process to a simplified circuit with three nodes, ground bottom, and solve equations for the node voltages VA and VB using currents I_x, I_y, and I_z.

  • Solving and Checking a Traditional Nodal Analysis Problem4:01

    Solve and verify a traditional nodal analysis problem by computing node voltages with two equations and applying Ohm's law. Check Kirchhoff's current law at each node to confirm current directions.

  • Setting Up a Nodal Analysis Problem with a Dependent Source9:50

    Apply nodal analysis to a circuit with a current controlled dependent current source, count nodes, ground one node, and use KCL and Ohm's law for currents I1, I5, and I10.

  • Solving and Checking a Nodal Analysis Problem with a Dependent Source3:20

    Solve a nodal analysis problem with a dependent current source, determine node voltages, verify currents with Ohm's law, and apply Kirchhoff's current law to confirm circuit correctness.

  • Setting Up a Nodal Analysis Problem with a Voltage Source (Super Node)10:12

    Learn to solve a nodal analysis with a voltage source using a super node, relate the 9-volt source to the unknown node, and apply Kirchhoff's current law and Ohm's law.

  • Solving and Checking a Nodal Analysis Problem with a Voltage Source (Super Node)3:33

    Solve a nodal analysis with a voltage source using a super node, apply ohm's law to i90 and i50, and compute vb and vae.

  • Summary1:01

    Master nodal analysis with a single reliable process that works for any circuit. Move slowly, be patient with the math, and stay careful to avoid rushing.

Description

Day 15 of Linear Circuits.  Nodal analysis is a systematic process that can be used to solve any linear circuit.  While nodal analysis can seem daunting at first, it turns out, that all we are really doing is applying Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) and Ohm's Law over-and-over again.  In part 2, we apply nodal analysis to even more circuits.


The material covers all of the lecture material from an fifteenth lecture in a traditional, sophomore-level linear circuits class.
